I was complete noob before getting started with this course. But after completing all the assignments and the practicing all the exercises behind textbook now i might be able to read some basic codes and be able to understand them. Thank you Charles Severance, for creating such a nice course for beginners.

Its a wonderful Course and the tutor not only is experienced,has a good idea about the materials but also keeps the students engaging. You would never stop the course midway. The tuutor exactly knows to teach a beginner. This is definitely the course you were looking for if you are beginner in promgramming

The simplified approach was great. This is a better way to teach programming than when I learn C decades ago. Had the professor taken the basic approach taken in this class instead of overwhelming individuals with computational math problems from the start, I would have continued down the programming path.

Thank you for providing useful materials for who does not know any programming. I'm very interested in this course and i'm going to continue educating myself in Python which opened new window in my IT world. And special thanks for Dr. Severance who made this challenging course easy to learn and understand.

Great ! Les bases de Python expliquées simplement, avec quelques petits programmes pas toujours si simples que cela à écrire. Le cours n'est pas traduit en français mais il est compréhensible meme pour une française pas vraiment douée en anglais.

Je passe au suivant 'Python Data structure'

Thanks Dr Chuck !

Never thought I would enjoy programming as I just believed my brain didn't work that way, but how wrong was I. I am simply amazed at how well the instructor subtly but quickly builds on previous slides to increase your understanding so that after six weeks you thoroughly grasp the very basic fundamentals.

This Course I learn many things like basic syntax ,type convertions, contions statements,loop statements,error handling(try,except) and Functions I'm really Happy with that, But Going forward I need some advance topic such as classes and object as well as increase many small exmples and more assignments.

It does what the title says it does. When Peter (the instructor) says that this course assumes you have zero programming knowledge, he delivers the lectures with that premise. This made the learning experience intuitive and pleasant. I would highly recommend it to everyone who wants to start programming.

This is my first online course on Coursera and I think I made good start. Course is very informative and easy to understand. Instructor is just perfect. Before I took in person classes of C/C++ but prof was so boring and had monotonous voice, however prof. Charles was so funny while explaining some terms.

Excellent course ! Dr. Charles Severance is a conscientious teacher. He gives the clear and funny examples and keeps encouraging learners. The lessons are well-structured and the assignments following the lessons require the ability to apply the functions. I highly recommend this course for all beginners.

This is the best course for those who do not have any prior knowledge in programming and python. One thing which take my whole attention toward this course is the way of teaching. I think its hard to fined someone who gets bored with this professor. I suggest this course to every beginner in programming.

The course instructor is very patient. Although I am an advanced beginner the quiz questions were sometimes tricky. I like the attitude of the instructor when he says that he wants us to become teachers and spread the knowledge that we have gained through this course to others.

Thank you for a fresh start!

Before learning this course, I dont know anything about programming.But really, the way Professor.Chuck delivered the concept of python from scratch helped me to do coding and kindled the interest to do next course.Thank you Professor.Now i am confident to do coding from expressions upto loops in Python..

Really really good course. I am a complete beginner and I found the difficulty of the course to be just right. Challenging but engaging. Dr. Charles made the lessons very easy to understand. He's occasionally funny too! Assignments were useful and I've learned a lot in this introductory course. Thank you!

I would recommend this course to everyone who wants to learn to programme. Although I'm tech-savvy, I had no prior knowledge of the software and also I'm not from a STEM background. Even then, I swiftly completed this course while developing simple yet substantial programmes. Thank you, Charles Severance.

An absolutely awesome course to get your interest into python lit! The lecture is just too good, its way easier to understand the fundamentals. This course is gonna help a lot in getting a proper understanding of the what basics of python that's required. Overall a very good course if you're a beginner :>

Very enjoyable and well taught course. This course will give me the ability in the future to utilize Python in my everyday learning, as well as hopefully aid me to learn and better understand other programming languages. The teacher Charles Severence was a fantastic teacher and explained things very well.

Having no prior programming experience, this class was a great introduction. Dr. Chuck's made the course material feel intuitive, and were complemented nicely by the reading material and exercises. Each chapter built on the previous chapters nicely. Looking forward to taking the next course in the series!

This is an excellent initiative to educate the world. I hope that the course reaches great heights. I believe that the one who completes this course will proudly say "Hey! If I can teach a computer (through Python), then I can teach anyone in need."

This course really makes "Programming for Everybody"!! :)

I used to do a lot of very simple programming when I was younger, but let it slide over the past decade or so. Being a total newcomer to Python, I really appreciated the solid foundation that this course provides, and I'm looking forward to furthering my knowledge of Python with the other related courses.

Videos were simplified and easy to follow supplemented by new exercises, support from experts on forums and the textbook. All materials were easy to access and could be paused or re-watched as needed to get a further understanding. Best coding class I have ever taken. Thank you Dr. Severance and team!!!!

it's a very great course for those who have zero background in programming. But if you have a little knowledge in other programming knowledge, I will suggest you skip this one.

this is very fundamental class, simple and catchy. The professor successfully made this topic very interesting and easy to learn.

Very easy and inviting approach, and at the same time, very detailed and interesting to follow. I never had a dull moment throughout my learning experience. Also, the teaching assistant in the discussion group is very helpful and always there. Now, I understand what it means that Python is easy to learn.

Es muy buen curso, me encantó, lo único que encontré de negativo fue el hecho de que dijeran que estaba subtitulado al español pero la realidad es que solo hay un par de capítulos que se encuentran en este idioma, pero lo demás esta muy bien como para empezar en el mundo de la programación. Lo recomiendo

As a beginner in Python Language, I found this 7-week course very comprehensive and also made me so comfortable to code. Our tutor, Prof. Charles, explains the basic concepts of programming and coding syntaxes very clearly and with a bit of humour :)

I thoroughly enjoyed all the classes of this Course-1.
